Joe Chinnici
a.k.a. Six Foot Joe
P.O. Box 470132, Aurora, Colorado 80047
Blues – Rock
Horn driven rock and roll, that’s the essence of Six Foot Joe’s music. With a sound that’s six feet tall, hard-blowing sax man and vocalist Six Foot Joe revs up his own blend of rock & roll / blues with horns a plenty. Influences: Sax icons King Curtis and Jr. Walker; horn bands like Southside Johnny & the Asbury Jukes, Jack Mack & the Heart Attack and the Powder Blues Band. Combining his passion for early rock & roll and lyrical imagery, Joe’s lyrical influences rest squarely on the shoulders of guys like Springsteen and Joe Ely — two artists who are master word-smiths. Joe takes center stage with his own hip-brand of rocking-blues flavored music with his backing band the Red Hot Rhinos, and continues to create an eclectic catalog of music.

Kennenth Harper Finton The Fintons TheFintons.com
CLASSICS FROM 20s to 60s
The poet said, “Beauty is truth and truth beauty.” Since beauty is in the eye of the beholder, so then is truth. My name is Kenny Finton. I have been writing music for more that 40 years. I performed as a young man in coffee houses, concerts, and did the folk circuits during the folk craze in the late 60s. I then became a staff writer in New York City, after three years I got sick of it and moved back to my roots and the countryside. I quit performing during that time, taking time to raise a family, care for elders, and pursue many other ambitions. Yet, I never quit writing. I returned to performance in the 80’s when the urban country craze rocked the movies and radio. Not liking bars, once again I quit to pursue more intellectual things. I have returned to performing again in the last three to four years and have made a great little niche in Denver playing originals and covers for seniors, casinos and selected venues and parties, most of it local. Like Little Richard, I am pretty darned well preserved for my age. I would never trade the experiences and challenges I have faced for youth — nor would I take a drink from the fountain of youth, thank you. Except for some inevitable health changes, becoming a senior is a righteous gas and has its own valuable perks. Our performances have done nothing but improve in all that time. I am much fonder of the way I can sing and write now than I ever was as a teenager or a 40-something. I might be too old for ‘American Idol’, but you will quickly find that my music is a lot different melodically and lyrically than the usual fare offered up on the Internet. Whether ‘tis better or not is your choice, not mine. I am pleased with the improvements, personally. I have learned the great art of loving my life and times. Chaya and I have been working together for 30 years. She also gets better and better with time. Like old wine, deliciousness is often a matter of time.

A unique and personal style of two finger picking, like two legs on six classical strings, dancing across a staff of notes with lyrics that are articulated to be heard, to move the soul, the heart, the physical art of the song. Performing for Dignitaries, Festivals, Churches and Concerts, Paul Noel Fiorino is ready to perform for you, his ballads.

Cody Brubaker
The Brixton Guns www.TheBrixtonGuns.com
Alternative
The Brixton Guns’ self titled debut EP is an attack on the conventional music industry. Influenced by bands like Green Day, Black Flag, Tool spanning to The Police, Pretty Lights, and Coldplay, The Brixton Guns are no strangers to controversy. While their music is aimed at the sole purpose of expression and brutal honesty, it has developed a sound controversial in nature while the band’s live performances push the boundaries of traditional rock and roll with the raw energy of hardcore punk blended with the blissful ambience of Coldplay, the songwriting/reggae influence of The Police, and the party atmosphere of an electronic show. If you were to ask the 3 piece what describes their sound, they would immediately say “ambient dance ska punk, our ‘pop with nuts’, or Denver Partycore”

Been rocking out since I was 18. Play mainly electric guitar with a dash of guitar synth and acoustic thrown in for good measure. Currently seeking new bands/opportunities. Have idea for greatest rock cover band of all time. Would love to songwrite with folks (this is reading like a personal ad…not big into moonlit walks on the beach. )

Denver resident and erstwhile public defender in Brooklyn, N.Y., songwriter Andy Palmer performs solo and leads the band, Grub Street Writer. Three years of living and working in the trenches of Brooklyn’s underbelly provide fodder for his raw lyrical and musical style, which might be qualified as folk rock with an alternative edge. His vocal quality has been compared to Bob Dylan, Johnny Cash, Tom Waits and others, but has always been very much his own making, emerging from long periods of solitude and silence.

The last couple years have seen Denver-based blues rockers Reverend Hooch scratching out a solid reputation up and down the front range of Colorado by virtue of the band’s excellent command of the time-worn blues classics. Fronted by 27 year old Steve Mignano and backed up by rhythm section veterans David Brenowitz (drums) and Roc Eubanks (bass), Reverend Hooch injects much needed new blood and young fans into a musical scene that oftentimes has more in common with graying baby boomers than today’s 20 and 30 somethings.

Gabriel Kitzman Shoot To Please www.ReverbNation.com/ShootToPlease
Alternative Pop
Shoot to Please. Like shoot to kill, but not really related… and quite the opposite in regards to intent. We hail from Denver, Colorado, or at least use it as a central location to meet and practice. We rehearse in “Gramma’s Garage.” We call it that because it is a garage that belongs to Gabe’s Grandmother… We also specialize in creative naming… We call ourselves Alternative Pop, but play many different genre’s of rock. Gabe is a music major at UC Denver and has a strong jazz influence, which tends to be problematic when striving for simplicity… The Spill Canvas, Rise Against, Paramore, Envy on the Coast, Emery, and Brand New are some of the bands we have been compared to.

Terry DeBell
3 Star Monday www.3StarMonday.com
If you start with the heart and soul of Tom Petty and mix in the Cars dynamics and the drive of the Police brew up some Kings of Leon and Weezer stir in some Americana reminiscent of the Refreshments / Roger Clyne and the Peacemakers with a dash of the Foo Fighters you’d get 3 Star Monday’s sound. Very rock, very pop and danceable, driving and enjoyable, and always entertaining.
